Spaerophoria females cannot be distinguished, as we learned from many threads here (just search the archive!). Yours looks peculiar: the head tells us "female", but the slender, parallel-sided abdomen looks rather "male-ish". Either way there is no chance for a species name, thus the long silence...
Regards, Sundew

Thank you Sundew Smile it's very nice to get this answer. As the fly looks really peculiar I thought that this reason is perhaps a chance for a name ...
Best regards Kuv

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
